Resolve Evening - Help Improve the StreetSupport.net website

Details

• What we'll do
We're looking for developers, UX designers, marketing gurus and community helpers to make improvements to the StreetSupport.net website. During the evening, in teams, we address the number of suggested improvements and try to implement as many as possible on the night. These could be small tasks from updating data on individual pages, to bigger projects such as redesigning entire sections of the site. We run these evenings once a month so it would be really great if you are able to make these events regularly, so that we can start building up a team and community to develop a leading platform in supporting homeless people. We get started at roughly 6:30pm, with a kickoff chat by Viv Slack (co-founder of StreetSupport.net). Following this the teams break off into their own spaces to start working on tickets drawn from the Trello Boards. If you're new, have a chat to one of the team and we'll be able to help you get set up and buddy you up with the relevant team. We work through tasks for a couple of hours (there's pizza and snacks to keep you going!) before reconvening for a debrief and retrospective.

If it's your first time at one of these events, we encourage you to arrive early to meet the team and to start getting set up. We're a friendly bunch so you'll receive a warm welcome, we can't wait to meet you and have you as part of the team!

• Important to know
We are finding ways to work together well as a volunteer community. Here are some guidelines:
Everyone’s voice is valid
Listen with attention, speak with intention
Focus on completing small actions
If a discussion goes on for more than 15 mins or is off topic, stop and make a decision as a group, or get one of the core team to make a call
